How to configure Toraiz AS-1

For proper operation of the editor you should properly configure the synthesizer. Following parameters in
Toraiz AS-1 Global Settings should be set to these values:

How to configure Toraiz AS-1 editor VST

PLEASE, MAKE SURE the MIDI ports that are used for communication with your Toraiz AS-1 are are not currently occupied by other software (include your DAW).

For example, if you connect your synthesizer via USB:

  1. Power on your Toraiz AS-1, and connect it via USB, Open your DAW, proceed to MIDI preferences and DISABLE or REMOVE "Toraiz AS-1" MIDI ports (input and output).
  2. Add an instance of the Toraiz AS-1 Editor VST plugin to your DAW and open the plugin window.
  3. Proceed to the Preferences dialog within the Toraiz AS-1 Editor VST, and select "Toraiz AS-1" MIDI port as input port, and select "Toraiz AS-1" MIDI port as output port.

Connecting your Toraiz AS-1 via MIDI Interface (for this example we will use the abstract SUPER100 midi interface device, with our synthesizer connected to port 1):

  1. Power on Toraiz AS-1, power on your MIDI Interface device, and connect it via MIDI to port 1
  2. Open your DAW, proceed to your DAW's MIDI preferences and DISABLE or REMOVE the MIDI ports from your MIDI interface that are connected to your REV2, in our case we need to disable/remove "SUPER100 port 1" from the (input and output).
  3. Add an instance of the DSI Toraiz AS-1 Editor VST plugin to your DAW, and open the plugin window.
  4. Proceed to the Preferences dialog within the Toraiz AS-1 Editor VST and select the MIDI ports from your MIDI interface which are connected to your Synthesizer, in our case we will select "SUPER100 port 1" as the input and output.

How to capture audio from synthesizer in DAW and process it on same track with the editor.

The editor itself doesn't capture and produce audio. The synthesizer should be connected to audio interface and you should use your's DAW facilities to capture audio. The most common way is to create additional audio track (or channel) in the DAW and route audio signal from audio interface to this track where you can process it. But most popular DAWs has special tools for integration external effects processors that can be used for route audio from synthesizer and process audio on same track with the editor.

See in:

Examples:

How to record MIDI from synthesizer in DAW

On OS X

  1. Enable checkbox “Aux Output Port” in the editor preferences.
  2. Add or enable input MIDI port “your_synth_name_AUX” in your DAW.

On Windows

Unfortunately on Windows platform this required additional virtual MIDI ports software. I highly recommend loopMIDI by Tobias Erichsen. Also I recommend to use virtual MIDI ports software instead any hardware solution because low latency.

  1. Run loopMIDI and add MIDI port with name like “your_synth_name_AUX”, for example “Rev2_AUX”.
  2. Open the editor and set this created port in “Aux Output Port”.
  3. Add or enable this input MIDI port in your DAW.

Also in some cases you can get midi loop issues. It depends from setup and midi routing on your side. To avoid this you can disable “Local Control” on device and enable “Local Control Support”in the editor preferences. Again, “Local Control Support” should be enabled when “Local control” is OFF on device.

How to sync BPM, work in slave mode

As described above I recommend to disable MIDI clock sync on synthesizer. Usually “Sync BPM” feature is enough for most cases. In this mode the editor automatically sets BPM parameter of the synthesizer.

But if you want to work with your synthesizer in slave mode you can do following:

On OS X

  1. Enable "Aux Input Clk Port" in the editor preferences. This creates new midi port called like "your_synth_name_CLK".
  2. Send MIDI clock to this port from the DAW and the editor will redirect it to the synthesizer.

On Windows

Unfortunately on Windows platform this required additional virtual MIDI ports software. I highly recommend loopMIDI by Tobias Erichsen. Also I recommend to use virtual MIDI ports software instead any hardware solution because low latency.

  1. Run loopMIDI and add MIDI port with name like “your_synth_name_CLK”, for example “Rev2_CLK”.
  2. Open the editor and set this created port in “Aux Input Clock Port”.
  3. Send MIDI clock to this port from the DAW and the editor will redirect it to synthesizer.
